Chapter 120: The Past
When the woodcutter saw that Granny Ye had settled down, the two of them led the child home, leaving Jiang Liang and Zhao Jingxuan with Granny Ye.
Granny Ye's house is really simple, there are only two rooms in the family, Granny Ye lives in one, and Jiang Liang and Zhao Jingxuan, who are guests, can only live in the other room.
This is because of Zhao Jingxuan, he claims to be husband and wife with Jiang Li, and of course Granny Ye is not easy to break up a couple.
As a result, they must remain in the same room until they leave the village.
As for the places in Granny Ye's house, they are just a pigsty and a chicken coop, not to mention that Jiang Liang is unwilling to do so, even a big man like Zhao Jingxuan can't stay.
Jiang Liang thought about it, and could only endure it.
Zhao Jingxuan seemed very excited, but he still pretended not to care about it, as if he was very embarrassed in the face of this situation.
"Just this room, if I go out, it's not impossible, I'm afraid that Granny Ye will suspect the two of us. If we were exposed, I don't know what the people in this village would think, so we would have to reluctantly cooperate. ”
"Ah Li, don't worry, I will protect you."
Zhao Jingxuan said, smiling slightly at Jiang Liang, but no matter how Jiang Liang looked at it, he felt that his smile was mostly ill-intentioned. However, in the wild, the two of them have already slept together all night, and now it is not interesting to be hypocritical.
Jiang Liang directly pretended to be stupid and didn't dwell too much on this matter.
"If someone finds someone dipping in the pig cage, you have to come with me."
Jiang Liang said lightly, anyway, this kind of thing can't be slapped in the face, if something happens to her, Zhao Jingxuan shouldn't think about withdrawing!
"Don't worry, if a thief comes up, I will protect you."
Jiang Liang ignored Zhao Jingxuan's words, and directly began to make the bed, she first picked up the straw mat and put it on the ground to spread it, and then picked up a bedding and set it up.
Zhao Jingxuan looked at Jiang Liang's movements, and hurriedly said, "I sleep underground." ”
"It's not you, it's me?"
Jiang Liang rolled her eyes angrily, if it weren't for Zhao Jingxuan lying that they were husband and wife, she could have squeezed Granny Ye all night!
"This is an expedient measure, and I don't want to pursue it, don't talk nonsense when you go back!"
"Big deal, I married you. It is said that the grace of saving lives should be reciprocated, I wanted to promise you that you were unwilling before, but this time I can be regarded as saving you, right? Otherwise, you will obey me? ”
"Think beautifully!"
Jiang Liang really doesn't understand Zhao Jingxuan's brain circuit, so he wants to have something to do with her?
She directly regarded Zhao Jingxuan as a ball of air and continued to tidy up the bedding quietly.
Seeing that his temptation was ignored, Zhao Jingxuan was very displeased.
However, he is not discouraged, I believe that the two will be in love for a long time, and they will definitely be able to let Jiang Liang see his goodness!
Zhao Jingxuan cheered himself up again, thinking that he would take this opportunity to be alone with Jiang Li, maybe he would be able to hug the beauty when he went back.
If Jiang Liang heard his heart at this time, he would most likely throw him a pillow directly and tell him that there was everything in his dream.
Just as they were arguing, a young man's voice suddenly sounded outside.
Jiang Liang just felt that the voice was a little familiar, and he wasn't sure where he had heard it, but Zhao Jingxuan was vigilant, made a silent gesture to her, and walked lightly to the door, checking the movement outside through the crack in the door.
Jiang Liang didn't know why, but she also knew that Zhao Jingxuan must have something to do when she was suddenly so solemn, she couldn't help but hold her breath, and after a while, she listened to the young man outside the door talk to Granny Ye for a while and left.
When the footsteps were far away, Zhao Jingxuan returned to his chair with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with the guy outside the door just now? Jiang Liang saw that Zhao Jingxuan had something on his mind, and hurriedly asked in a low voice.
Her perception of the outside world is not as keen as Zhao Jingxuan's, so she just feels that the voice is a little familiar, as if she has heard it somewhere, but she can't remember it for a while.
"It's a bandit."
"What!"
Jiang Liang was taken aback when he heard Zhao Jingxuan say this, and almost didn't jump up.
She didn't expect that this small village seemed to be peaceful, and there were bandits in the village!
"Be quiet, don't be nervous."
Zhao Jingxuan signaled Jiang Liang not to be afraid, his expression was calm, his voice was low, and he inexplicably gave people a sense of reassurance.
Zhao Jingxuan was also not sure if the bandit had discovered them, so he decided not to startle the snake, "Let's wait and see what happens, maybe the other party didn't find us." ”
Jiang Liang also knew that it was useless to be scared now, it was better to wait for something to happen before making plans.
They first recuperated at Granny Ye's house, and when their bodies recovered somewhat, even if they wanted to escape, they would be relatively smooth.
Because of this thief who suddenly appeared, the atmosphere of the two was a little solemn, and the room became quiet all of a sudden.
At this moment, Granny Ye's voice suddenly came from outside, and it turned out that she was calling them out to eat.
Jiang Liang and Zhao Jingxuan glanced at each other, and Jiang Liang got up and went out directly.
"Granny Ye, I'll help you."
Jiang Liang was very diligent in helping Granny Ye arrange the tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks, and helped the old man to sit down. "Granny Ye, I heard your voice talking to someone just now. I heard the woodcutter's brother say that you have no children and no daughters, and that young man is your relative? ”
Knowing that the other side could survive a hundred battles, Zhao Jingxuan felt that since he didn't know the relationship between the bandits and the village, he simply asked directly.
Granny Ye didn't expect them to ask about this, and she couldn't help but sigh when she heard this.
"Well, that kid is a poor one, too. Originally, he had a girl who was in love, and the two were childhood sweethearts, and they originally thought that they could form a good marriage, who would have thought that they would ...... It's a pity! ”
Granny Ye listened to Zhao Jingxuan's inquiry, and was immediately opened into a chatterbox, and couldn't help but sigh heavily.
She got up to serve them a meal, and the expression on her face was a little sad.
"Why didn't this pair of childhood sweethearts end up together? Could it be that something unfortunate has happened? ”
Talking about this kind of topic, Jiang Li's attention was also attracted at once, and he hurriedly asked. "Mother-in-law, just tell us about it!"
Jiang Liang secretly exchanged a look with Zhao Jingxuan, but Zhao Jingxuan picked up his rice bowl and pretended to be nothing. "How easy is this kind of thing to ask, let's eat."
"It's just when you hear about this kind of thing that you want to know."
Jiang Liang deliberately showed a dissatisfied expression, as if he wanted to compete with Zhao Jingxuan.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them became tense, Granny Ye was afraid that they would quarrel, so she hurriedly persuaded her. "It's not something that can't be mentioned, if you don't dislike me as an old woman and want to hear stories, I'll talk about it."
